Martin Nguyen - ONE Journey

Martin Nguyen’s road to redemption was nothing short of miraculous. After succumbing to Marat Gafurov’s signature rear-naked choke in his first World Title shot, the Vietnamese-Australian buckled down and went on a four-bout win streak to set up another meeting with his Russian adversary. This time, Nguyen capitalized on his second opportunity to achieve a lifelong dream of becoming a ONE World Champion. Soon after, he made history once again, knocking out lightweight legend Eduard Folayang to become the ONE's first-ever two-division World Champion. Now, looking to cement his legacy as the greatest featherweight on the planet, he defends his World Title against Japanese superstar Koyomi Matsushima at ONE: DAWN OF HEROES in Manila.
